sunroof
I have a 2006 cobalt ss 2.4, I don't have a sunroof. I haven't seen other ss without a sunroof. Am I the only one without a sunroof? Or is it more common than I think.

When I wiki the SS the picture they have of the 2.4 ss doesn't have a sunroof. So I guess it was an option in the 2.4.

Some LSJs don't have them either. I think it was an option in 05-06.

No sunroof = less body flex.
What that means is .....perfect drag car.

More than it's worth and after awhile would probably leak worse than a factory one.

You'd have to install new bracing to keep the roof rigid. Not worth it.

I actually believe the only year the sunroof came standard was in 2010.

He sold it because it didn't have a sunroof?

The sun roof itself doesn't rattle, it's the slider door thing that does. I don't even use mine.

Well yes, on top of that he just bought a Transam ws6 , but he hated the fact it didn't have a sunroof.
